Entering and Certification
After observing the cultivators around the realm teleportation array whose perceptions had been altered by the laws, the Second Elder Qingzhenzi spoke to Danyuanzi.
"Pack your things and return to the sect. The Realm-Suppressing Dao Bell rung three times; the Grand Elder has already gone to investigate. It seems there has been an invasion by forces from outside the realm."
Danyuanzi was somewhat surprised by these words, but then became a little expectant.
"In that case, wouldn't we have more resources to cultivate new Nascent Soul cultivators? I wonder if I have the opportunity."
As cultivators from the same faction, they both belonged to the alchemy lineage, Qingzhenzi frowned somewhat at his optimistic attitude.
"Don't let your guard down. This time, the Dao Bell tolls three times, unlike the small worlds we captured before. Even with our current strength, we won't be able to handle it."
Of course, Qingzhenzi was not worried at all about their defeat. With the Realm-Suppressing Dao Bell protecting them, there was no possibility of a complete failure.
If they become too powerful, we can simply offer sacrifices to the Dao Bell and [Clear Void Heaven] and leave this region.
However, having experienced several raids on smaller worlds, Danyuanzi didn't care at all.
They even thought that if the other party became stronger, they could gain more resources and thus break through to the Nascent Soul realm. For nearly 2,000 years, [Clear Void Heaven] has continuously captured many weak worlds to increase its own origin Repair the world, which has gradually fostered in these young cultivators an arrogant and greedy habit of plundering.
After experiencing a spatial fluctuation, the little figure from the Azure Firmament Water appeared on the top of a mountain ten thousand meters high.
As soon as she appeared, a young female cultivator at the Core Formation stage came to check. She was dressed in a blue lotus-patterned dress, her hair tied up in a Daoist bun, and she held a whisk. She appeared in front of the cultivator disguised as the Azure Firmament Water Man.
A scan with divine sense revealed that the person using the inter-domain teleportation array was Foundation Establishment cultivator, and no storage bag was found on their person.
The Core Formation female cultivator stepped forward to inquire.
"Who are you? You're only at the Foundation Establishment stage. How did you manage to come to my Earth Spirit Sect's territory via an inter-domain teleportation array?"
The little man from the Azure Firmament Water stepped forward, greeted him, and replied.
"My lord, you may call me Daoist Azure Firmament. I come from the Southern Domain. I was unable to adapt to the unrestrained exploitation of us rogue cultivators under the rule of the Mysterious Purity Sect. I admire the concept of the Earth Spirit Sect and the Earth Spirit Blessed Land, which is to build spiritual lands and treasure lands by forming connections with all things. That is why I came here at a great cost."
I hope to find a place to stay in the Central Domain. Please grant my request, sir.
The female cultivator at the Core Formation outwardly calm, but inwardly she didn't believe this whole story at all.
It should be noted that even Core Formation cultivator would find it difficult to bear the cost of using an inter-domain teleportation array. How could this Daoist Azure Firmament, who is merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator, not afford such a price? It is more likely that he is a spy sent by the Clear Mysteries Sect.
Although the two conflicts have gradually eased over the past ten to twenty thousand years due to prolonged isolation and communication difficulties, we must still be vigilant.
He then used his divine sense to report to the Nascent Soul elder who was stationed there.
"Hmm~"
"It is indeed suspicious, but since he has come all this way to seek refuge, let's take him to the academy and observe him closely so we can decide what to do."
The Core Formation cultivator spoke only after hearing the elder's decision.
"Since you admire the philosophy of our Earth Spirit Sect and have gone through so many difficulties to come here, there is naturally no reason for you to turn us away."
"You may call me the Perfected Taichang."
Then he called out.
Ling Ping
At this teleportation plaza, a female cultivator in charge of management flew over quickly and bowed to Taichang.
Master
"Bring this Daoist Azure Firmament into my Earth Spirit Academy to assess his strengths and assign him to a position based on his abilities."
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Biluo, please follow me."
Azure Firmament Water Xiaoren thanked her repeatedly and followed Ling Ping to a cluster of buildings at the foot of the mountain.
At this moment Perfected Taichang took out a talisman and activated it with his magic power. The talisman immediately transformed into a transparent little figure that followed behind the two who had left.
Watching the two leave, Taichang looked puzzled and used his divine sense to inquire about the depths of this place.
"Elder, I have another guess. This person arrived just as the Dao Bell rang. Could he be a cultivator from beyond the realm?"
An aged voice resounded in Taichang's heart.
"It's not impossible, but right now there are layers of thick fog outside my [Clear Void Heaven] that isolate divine sense and information exchange, so it shouldn't be possible to enter so quickly. However, my Earth Spirit Sect still needs to make plans as soon as possible."
As soon as it left this place, it felt that the original level 2 energy concentration immediately increased to level 6, and then the Azure Firmament Water Little Man began to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world.
Sensing the Daoist Azure Firmament following behind her, Ling Ping asked him in a tone as if she were looking at a country bumpkin visiting the city.
"Fellow Daoist Biluo, doesn't the Southern Domain have any spiritual energy? Why is it absorbing so much spiritual energy?"
Azure Firmament Water Xiaoren naturally knew what she meant, but now there was Taichang following behind, and even Yin Spirit's thoughts faintly sensed a faint Middle Tier divine sense watching this place.
He then said.
"Fellow Daoist Ling Ping, you may not know this, but such a rich environment of spiritual energy can only be found in the Mysterious Nether Immortal City, and even that is not as good. I felt hopeless about my future in that environment that squeezed the spiritual energy of rogue cultivators, so I used a special method to open an inter-domain teleportation array to come to the Central Domain and seek a path of Seeking the Dao."
Ling Ping believed this reason to some extent. With their Earth Spirit Sect Earth Immortal Paths, they were able to create Earth Spirit Blessed Land with high spiritual energy even in the Dharma-ending Age.
While the other four regions are naturally very attractive, the five regions contain ancient forbidden lands and natural barriers from the great war of the Dharma-ending Age, which is why the distribution of spiritual energy is extremely uneven and why the path of Earth Immortal has the opportunity to rise.
"In that case, fellow Daoist, you should cherish this hard-won opportunity. Normally, joining the Earth Spirit Academy requires passing various tests."
In the myriad arts of cultivation, one must reach at least the upper-level Foundation Establishment stage in at least one to pass the assessment and become a researcher. Those who Qi Refining can only enter this place as assistants.
Upon hearing this, the Avatar became somewhat interested.
"I happen to have the skill to cultivate spiritual plants, so cultivating some Late Foundation Establishment spiritual plants and herbs shouldn't be too difficult for me."
"If that's the case, Fellow Daoist Biluo should be able to establish a firm foothold very quickly."
As the two were talking, they arrived at the Earth Spirit Academy. Ling Ping led the Azure Firmament Water Doll to register her information and be assessed on her spiritual plant skills.
In a spirit field at the Foundation Establishment level, the Azure Firmament Water Figurine took out the spirit plant seeds used for the assessment.
The spell condensed in his hand, and [Spirit Seed Gentle Breeze Technique] was unleashed.
A gentle breeze, imbued with the principles of life, caressed the spiritual plant seed in my hand. This breeze was like a kind farmer, gently soothing the faint Spirituality within the seed.
